The Minnesota Department of Revenue is modernizing how we collect, track, and use the property tax data that we receive from counties.As part of this effort, we’re developing a centralized database – PRISM (Property Record Information System of Minnesota).

PRISM will let counties easily and securely send their information to our Property Tax Division, and let them send more detailed information than before. We use this data to calculate aid for local governments, track how the property tax system is working, and analyze how proposed changes would affect it.

With PRISM, we can analyze property tax data faster and more thoroughly to help legislators, state agencies, counties, and others who use the information. The system will let us provide better reports, quickly detect any errors in the data, and alert counties to potential audit issues.
